These cups document rather a long journey & one in which I may have travelled too far… My basic starting point was this delightful couple of cups given to us 20-odd years ago.

I set out to update them…  many months later I have flying aliens on cups that are a bit yin and yang (some flare out, others taper in to fit together)

I think they’re aliens because my drawings got more and more fanciful until the faces sprouted wings.  I loved the floatiness of the couples – a tad of Chagall perhaps.  They are for couples in love.

Most cups have 6 aliens – 3 pairs of two, facing each other.  Lots of hearts and kisses.
